    Easiest Chassis to Install Barreled Action Into

    If it's an older 591, no problem. If there is a newer 591, maybe. I believe the older AICS had some interference with a Jewell trigger. It seems the more recent chassis have a little larger opening for various triggers.

    Easiest Chassis to Install Barreled Action Into

    It's generaly very easy. A couple things that would need gunsmith attention is if the recoil lug is thicker than the cutout in the chassis. Or if the trigger or trigger hanger interfere with the cutout in the chassis.

    Advice Please - Accuracy showed promise but fell apart on custom 7 mm PRC

    Sounds like you had some excellent service from these two companies. I can second the recommendation for Shawn Boggeman at Triggered Precision Machine. He's done a couple things for me that were outstanding.

    Chasing accuracy with proof barrel.

    Yes, you're using really good components for both the rifle and ammunition.

    Chasing accuracy with proof barrel.

    Man, that looks like a nice rig! I have a few other thoughts to look into if the suggestions above don't help.

    Match grade barrel fouling after 40rds?

    Aside from the things that have been mentioned, when I've had trouble with a barrel fouling after a few dozen rounds it's been because of the powder. Either the powder I used was overly dirty or I wasn't getting the pressure up to where the powder burned most efficiently. H1000 is viewed as...

    Chambering issue after expander mandrell.

    @R_A_W has a good suggestion. The mandrel die might be installed into the press too far and causing the mandrel die to deform the shoulder.

    Chambering issue after expander mandrell.

    That's 0.003", but still might be a clue.

    Chambering issue after expander mandrell.

    From my experience using a expander mandrel it doesn't take much force to expand the neck. I doubt the mandrel is pushing the shoulder out. Are you using the stainless steel pin tumbler to clean cases?

    5/8" 24 tpi muzzle threading also for magnum and big bore caliber ?

    The only downside I can think of is if you wanted to sell one of those larger diameter threads it might be hard to find a buyer.

    AXSR action bolts issue

    I was wondering if this sort of problem was the reason AI added two more bolts to attach the receiver to the chassis. For a total of six bolts!

    Remington 700 Clone action help

    When you see "Rem 700 clone" it refers to the receicer to chassis mounting interface only. The scope to receiver will likely be different.

    308 FGGM brass

    I've had good experiences with that brass. If you can get what you need from the same lot it's very consistent.

    Weird looking brass

    I'm guessing a machine gun. The fluted chamber helps reduce "cook off" of a cartridge.

    Super weird issues on my .300 Norma Mag reloads

    Prior to loading the brass, was the brass exposed to any cleaners, liquid, tumblers? The primers that are backed out a little make me wonder if there is a head space issue.

    Copper Creek Cartridge Co load pack

    This is a nice option to have. Thanks for bringing it up. I usually think the 6.5 Creedmoor with a 140 grain bullet should have a velocity of 2700 to 2800 fps, but you noted your barrel length of 18" so that explains the velocity you measured. If you send back the once fired brass to have...
